LoL The Axl Rose Shuffle
The damned car went back and forth like that at least a half a dozen times before the curve. It probably didn't help that I was going 70MPH, but the damned thing did not want to straighten out, even with the slightest turn of the wheel, just enough to get it to come back. It would just keep going into the skid
You probably should have mixed some gas pedal with your adjusting. At that speed, unless you're freewheeling in neutral, you've got drag on your rear tires. Free 'em up to spin by applying a small amount of gas pedal.
And, yeah, start off slower and build speed...
I can do it on dry pavement 'cause I've got torque for days. It's started with a cut one way to load the suspension and a cut the other way while adding gas pedal to the mix - about one gear lower than you think you should be, don't be afraid of that rev limited unless you get to rev up to 8k or so.
Also, as near as I can tell, the ACR version of the Dodge Viper has no rev limiter. I can stomp on the gas, hold it, and straight up blow the engine.
Good...
I don't need a rev limiter. I've got ears and eyeballs.
The same is true with my street-legal M6 (the non GT3 version). The regular model has a rev limiter. Not so on the M model with the Competition Pack.
I'm sure the fact that it was a blizzard did not help me!
I was trying to slow down for my upcoming turn off when it started the skidding
Well, now you know that was too fast! If you lost control, you were going too fast for the conditions.
All accidents are caused by someone going too fast for the conditions. To be clear, sometimes the only appropriate speed is zero.
I played my first song on my new guitar. The tone was right and I was playing with the amp, so I played Jane Says...
